That'd be one good way to do it. The other way is via Clearview's UV "shim" layer, which will eventually make legacy DLPI devices appear to be GLDv3 drivers. I'd rather see these old drivers ported over to the new framework, but that's a cost/benefit analysis that others (partly the maintainers of the driver) need to make. (And, unfortunately, many of these old drivers are closed-source, so it's harder to find people to help out.) -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list [email protected]
